Crafting Tomorrow’s Luxury

“Luxury and sustainability are one and the same.” Reflecting this deeply held conviction of François-Henri Pinault, sustainability is at the heart of Kering’s strategy as much as its creative and modern vision of Luxury. By the same token, it is an ethical necessity and a driver of innovation and value creation for the Group, its Houses, and its stakeholders.

Pioneering the future of craft with Ksenia Schnaider

This episode of Fashion our Future focuses on craftsmanship, particularly on how current designers are blending heritage with new ethical and sustainable practices. Season 2 host Andrea Cheong sits down with Ksenia Schnaider to talk about how she embraced upcycling while developing her namesake brand.

Following the debut of the first season of the Fashion Our Future podcast in 2023, Kering is proud to release a follow-up season delving deeper into the topic of sustainability in Luxury. Audiences will follow new host, Andrea Cheong, as she meets designers, historians, and other experts in the field.

Biodiversity strategy

Kering has launched a number of initiatives to ensure the protection and sustainability of natural resources. The Group’s overall goal is to preserve such resources, which play a pivotal role in its activities. Today the Group is taking a step further by unveiling its Biodiversity strategy. Our approach is organized into four stages: avoid, reduce, restore & regenerate, and transform.

Environmental Profit & Loss

Kering has developed an innovative tool for measuring and quantifying the environmental impact of its activities. The Environmental Profit & Loss (EP&L) account is a key enabler of a sustainable business model, and one that Kering wishes to share with its peers in the Luxury industry and other sectors.
